How far do you live from Brighton ?

[Lurker]

Does this prove that a lot of Brighton people have been forced out by high house prices? Or does NSC attract a high % of exiles and out of towners?

I'm amazed how many Albion fans on here were not born .. or didn't even live their fledgling years .. within the mythical 'catchment' area of BHA?

65 miles each way for me.

This post raises another question - what is the mythical 'catchment' area of BHA? I was born in Battle and moved to Kent in the 70's and that is the closest I have got to living in Brighton.

I was born about two miles from Selhurst Park. Fortunately my parents moved to Burgess Hill when I was five.
